I did better on this one than the last one. I got seven out of ten. I also take exception to the question about the movies, but I'll let others view that quiz for themselves so they can decide on their own.

Why do you take exception?

Got #3 and #8 wrong. I knew that NY was the first state to have license plates, thought they were the first for insurance as well.

While there were a few scenes involving a car in Ferris Bueller's Day Off, I don't think of it as being central to the plot of the movie. I never saw Traffic, though, so I didn't have that to compare with the other movies.

The car in Ferris Bueller's Day Off wasn't just eye candy. It was symbolic of Cameron's disaffected relationship with his father, who has forsaken his son in pursuit of material wealth. The major climax of the movie revolves around "the incident" with the car.

Traffic was a movie about the drug traffic, not highway traffic.
